The Circulaire® Hybrid Fume Cupboard is the sustainable and environmentally responsible choice for laboratories and research facilities. Recirculating & Ducted Technology exhausts clean air to the outside atmosphere and ensures that, compared to a conventional fume cupboard, the volume of exhaust air and the energy used are reduced to contribute to a greener environment.
Product Description.
Our Hybrid Fume Cupboard combines the best features of traditional fume hoods with advanced filtration technology setting new standards for user protection and environmental responsibility to save on energy, resource and operating costs.
Our green hybrid process results in a 60% decrease in extraction of conditioned air that with ducted fume cupboards would be lost to atmosphere.
An additional key benefit of our Hybrid Technology, in comparison to ducted systems, is the extracted air is clean and filtered. The contaminants are removed directly at the source without contaminating the building exhaust air.
Intelligent airflow management technology optimises air circulation to reduce energy consumption while maintaining constant air quality.
The inflow air is drawn in from the laboratory through the front aperture, mixing with the contaminated air from the working chamber before being drawn through air intake grilles on the work surface into the Activated Carbon/HEPA Filters*. The advanced multi-stage filter options ensure superior removal efficiency, making it suitable for diverse chemical processes and experiments.
Cleaned and free of contaminants, the airflow is then guided through internal ventilation where it is divided so just 40% is extracted to the duct extract system.
The remaining 60% is recirculated back into the working chamber creating an air-curtain across the front aperture to provide containment and operator safety. This method differs to traditional fume cabinets which rely purely on inflow velocity for protection.
Vitally, this green process results in a 60% decrease in extraction of conditioned laboratory air that with conventional ducted fume cabinets would be lost to atmosphere.

Features & Benefits.
Hybrid Technology
Recirculating & Ducted Fume Cupboard Technology cuts emissions by exhausting clean air to the outside atmosphere.
Touchscreen Control Interface
Real-time monitoring of airflow and filter life enhances user safety and reduces downtime.
Energy Efficient
Recirculating air reduces the need for external ventilation, lowering energy consumption and operational costs.
Combo Filtration
Carbon and HEPA filters capture chemicals and particulates, ensuring a cleaner and safer working environment.
Partial Air Recirculation
Lower Air Consumption means up to 60% less outgoing air than a conventional Fume Cupboard.
Eco Mode
PIR Sensors ensure efficient energy consumption by placing the cabinet in Eco Mode after a period of operator inactivity.
